Draft at Crooked Run. Hazy golden pour, creamy, soft white head. Aroma is light citrus and stone fruit. Taste is sweet with a dank edge, stone fruit, . Creamy and super tasty

From the pint can, it pours a hazy light amber color with a overly large white head that slowly diminishes and leaves lacing. The nose gets a light and airy scent of citrus, followed by the mouth getting a nice citrusy blend of

A: Poured from the can into a Tree House tulip. Body is hazy dark golden. Small white head disappears quickly.
S: Not pleasant - or at least not what I'm used to with NEIPAs or what I've been drinking recently. . . . Frankly, it smells of spent grain with a hint of citrus.
T: Not much better - aggressively fruity but over a strong bill of grain or straw, also with a vegetal taste to it. Does finish with modest bitterness that lingers - think lemon or grapefruit peel.
M: Chalky. No real carbonation. Medium in heft.
O: Nope. The first beer of the last day of 2020, and like the year . . . this one may be a drain pour. Life is too short to drink beer that you don't thoroughly enjoy.

16oz can into an IPA glass. Canned 11/18/19
Look: Pours an opaque pale orange/beige-ish. Finger-width white head dissipates into a foamy ring around the glass, leaving a decent amount of sticky, spotty lacing behind.
Smell: A somewhat muted bouquet of citrus and tropical fruit, mostly orange/tangerine and pineapple.
Taste: Follows the nose but pleasantly more intense. Again, led by orange/tangerine, citrus peel, some pink grapefruit, pineapple, mango and peach. A biscuity, crackery malt lingers on the palate along with some light bitterness.
Feel: A soft/smotth medium body, with small bubbles and prickly, persistent carbonation.
Overall: Quite a good IPA. Good balance and it hits all the right juicy notes with a decently bitter/dry finish, but isn't really a standout in any area.
